[Weakauras] Clampys Protection Aura Group v1.5!

Hey guys!

I have compiled a set of auras for myself (While using some suggested set-ups and strings posted by users on this forum. I thought I would share it and hopefully help out some people who are just starting to tank and want some nice reminders or maybe just want a nice set of auras to assist them.
I am always updating and tweaking as I go to give myself the information that I wish to know in easy and clear locations. I will start of calling this v1.0 as as I go I will update and repost the string!

Clampys Protection Aura Group

Version 1.5

Features

----- Top Level -----

Shield Slam ready alert (with CD tracker)

Shield Slam with SnB alert

Revenge alert (with CD tracker & glow aura for when you dodge/parry)

Level 45 tier talent ready alert

Level 45 tier talent CD tracker

Shout ready alert with 15 second CD tracker

All 3 banner remaining duration (And a raid tracker for skull banner, who put it down & duration)

Step 3: Go In-game and type in /wa into the chatNote: If you already have an older version installed right click on the group and click on "Delete children and group" before continuing).Step 4: Click on 'New' (Located HERE - Blue Outline)Step 5: Click on 'Import' (Located HERE - Red Outline)Step 6: Paste the code into the box via Ctrl+VStep 7: A box should appear with information regarding the import. Click on the import button (Located HERE)
You should now have the auras installed and ready to go. They will only appear when on a warrior, when in combat and when in protection spec.

I'll have to check this out. I have my own set of WeakAuras I was using; I'll test yours out as well.

Awesome buddy, go for it. Its nothing fancy or anything too complex, its just a nice combined set of auras to give you information on what you need to know. My girlfriend tried it out and she really liked it so I figured I would share it to help other people as well.

Thanks for the kind comments, I will ATTEMPT to make something similar for palas but I don't have as much experience with paladins in the slightest. I will read the prot pala guide and try and make some tweaks for you.

If I can make requests, would it be possible, to add a Shield Block duration as well? I have one myself, but if it is integrated in yours, it would look better, I'm sure. That being said, only if it's not already there. I can try it out tomorrow at the earliest
and the last thing would be, if there would be a timer for the weakened blows effect (for the current target). Because I think that is something also worth being tracked as a Tank of any class.

but even if you don't want to make this or don't have the time for it, the current state already looks awesome, even only from the picture

I've got to admit that i'm usually not a fan of these aura-sets instead of making my own, but this one is very good. Excellent work.
And to the poster above - shield block duration is there. Weakened blows duration could be a nice feauture, but i'm going to go ahead and make my own. Can't ask too much!

Its there, I just forgot to write it up .

I was hoping on making a few tweaks today to add a couple of buffs and debuffs the hope is to add the following;
Debuff: Weakened blows (On Target)
Debuff: Disarm
Buffs: Spell reflect
Buffs: Mass spell reflect

I don't want to bloat it too much, so we'll see. Its already a bit on the chunky side although more information is never a bad thing.

As a long lasting mmo-champion reader, I have not registered yet for forums because I was just a reader. But when I saw your post on weakauras, as a fellow Warrior Tank, I thought I have to "thank you" for such post. Therefore, I registered forums for say my thanks on this manner. Keep it up good work man

Update: v1.01 - Added Weakened Blows and Demoralising Shout tracker.

you know that hoax about samsung paying their debt to apple in nickles? consider it to receive as many thanks as theses nickles.
if it works (and I doubt it won't), that may be the single best addon for prot warriors. even though it's "just" a config of another one.

I did a minor modification to this to add some more buffs/cooldowns: An indicator when you have >= 60 Rage (the shield icon between Shield Slam and Revenge) and then a second row of cooldowns/debuffs. From left to right: Safeguard cooldown/availability (if talented), Avatar cooldown/availability (couldn't get this to recognized the "if talented" Lua; I was going to make this the placeholder for Avatar/Stormbolt/Bloodbath), Berserker Rage cooldown/availability, Shattering Throw cooldown/availability, Demo Shout cooldow/availability, and a flashing gray icon if your target is missing the Weakened Blows debuff (also a timer for Weakened Blows).

Here's the WA string (hopefully I copied it right; first time exporting from WA):

Nice job - I didn't see the point of having cooldowns because my bar is directly below it so I had no use for it the shout was just because I kept forgetting to use it. Each to their own!

Also, I was going to add the spinning cooldown duration, but because I use OmniCC it kept putting numbers on them as if it was an ability cooldown. If I kept the cooldown it would show the countdown in numbers twice (Once from OmniCC and once from WA). I figured it was easier just to have the numbers in case people are using addons which will pick-up the cooldown as well. I hope that made sense in the slightest, it felt a bit wordy.

Sounded like you just said you gave me no thanks! (Because it was just a hoax and no nickles were given) haha . Glad you like it, I will keep updating if I see fit and hopefully you continue you like the updates!

Hello,
I haven't had a chance to test this out for myself yet, but I had an option you could add. I wanted to compare how much my Shield Block actually blocked during its duration to what I could have absorbed with Shield Barrier, so I wrote some weak auras code that displays the amount blocked at the top of my screen after shield block fades. I had some help from the WOWACE forum (where I originally asked for help). The final code I was able to make is quoted below. I also have code I use to watch the size of my potential Shield Barrier and code to let me know how much absorb is left on my active Shield Barrier.

Hope it helps.

And lastly, this will show how much damage you blocked for the duration of Shield Block. It will display both at the top of the screen and send a message to your chat window: dyKKiaGiQQUKOu1OOkXPOkPxrveMff1TOkLDPsYWujogfPLjr9miyAQsUgIY2aj(gfX4uj15ajToQIQ7jb7dIsDqiY crQE OOuMiIQlcH2ivHpkrCsrjReQzsvXnPkv7eP8tiQgkivlLQspfyQQuxvI0wPksFfII5kkv2lQ)Iidw5WQyXsOhJKjRQ USWMP qFwuz0IQonOEnfmBrUTQy3s63uA4Gy5q65uz6sDDe2UQuFNQOmEqkNxuSEQIO5drj7NmBkFZGhg8zWNVzGrBT bWEYGP96Agqztwu(MPzk7buEbfeGkuVCHmeEDPmcKbv2O3idbMwzM2fMgcShViRSPLHYLRVugbtGQjqTmB0B Kzc3m4d7GKozUdO1m422NKg9KLYq89CTSVYakcxBFUdO1mqyHzqgKB0OlAMgcxUWa0ihSTENbsWGoGwZGdv dBRo(MbU(G28ndCwI6Nbalr9NDKBT)Zp7OhP0TnLUrHlEsx5zN3m4Bj5Se1ptNBUzWPc)CAyBLVzGRpOnFZGodK Gbqqdx0macA4IMboiWONe3m45ax5BgKHPr2fganM2fgabnCrZGtcs(d0jsUGbeUGuJEQU0PdModA0t1LoDCNbsW GIwIkvqEqDYWndmcxHD55Bg0zGemacA4IMbqqdx0mWbbg9K4MBg0OW5YfO8ndiCbPZJLO2Crg4SeOubrfUzqFq Zfnd(eONg2wzazmGIW12hs5H)bdA4N4ZGodKGbueU2(WakcxBFi1zGemiEh1MboIIX7O2acJgHHgdirosEhPsqKbe1 4DuBg0WpXNbeUGKZsGsfev4MlYG4DuBgKn7tXtR5JnhdOiCT9HbgjQunST6L4DuBZAn8t46ZdeZADgiHzT8W)iBhxh OM1CwcuQOKsZICZAolbkvq78eM1CwcuQWJ0jNZSMZsGsf(EG)EKo5CM1(HRlP0Si3S2pCnTZtyw7hU2J0jNZS2pC ThPtoxzZcRPPPDESe12SM9DGAaoLmRPPP5OYBTjnZAAAOHd21X3SMMMwXKLYq8nRD1vxP5vH1000ewttttynn nnyJADgirHc(bqhrF8HesL6lsKqc6q3NSqKC)AN6xZ(oqnaNsAfkO5hKhosFn6jlLb)D(OkSMMMMMMMwB7tIEYszi( fU iSMMMMMMMMWAAAAAAAAcRPPPf1VWAAAAWg1(HRPDEIcfkTc30opHx8djDYeO(9QwNpQAAAAAAAAcRPP PPPPPbBuRZaj0kuWpazYIwjKihjVJuji6xRZhvnH100000000000GnQvmzPmeFnHSkOvHtAD(OkSMMMMMMMMM MMMMMMwB7tIEYszi(Af0ABFs0twkdXxZtOvmzPmeFH100000000000I6xynnnnnnnTO(100000ewtttlQFH1000GnQ 1zGefk4haDe9XhsivQVirYxe9oY9uej3V2P(1SVdudWPuHc(b5HJ0xJEYszWVwNpQcRPPPPPPPbbfU2EX)TTpjnYp pNCHg9KLYq89Cn)M1ABFs0twkdX3RcRPPPPPPPHgnbAvRT9jrpzPmeFH1000I6x4O(fwyHfwyHfwyHfwyHfwyHfwy HfwyHfwyHfwyHfwyHfwyHfwyHfwyHfwyHfwyHfwyHfwyHfwyHfwyHfwygq4csftwkdXNPZakcxBFODEcgyKOs1W2Qx 8 QMMMMWAAAAOrtGw1ABFs0twkdXxZIQ53VWr9lSWclSWmiEh12XGSHCVthPBs(G8siHONIiTBsLsZJS85grFrK CgumzPmeFgCHbeUG0pCnrfUz6mOyYszi(KSqc0tBrzaYMboIIX7O2qhnmcdngaqMSOvcd(HRjQWndGKozcuUzGN b)78ShMGaukJqzOIq5YMyQjME9l2O3E9IbgT1MbiMExAwAzZ(u80mOs8CJcNlxG6yAMYG8bCU8n7bumHmYEzA 5RHs5RlFnzVEXg92ltya8Nbi9yjQTg9KLYq8zqYE(8ndiCbjQ0X5y6ma1Mc(MbpePgMV5MBgq4csoibftNbeUGeL9P 4 Pz6mWbjO4Bg4GR5sbtdbUzav64C8ndCW1CPGbids(6Bwi3xU5MBg4yGPx96ktUcbg8MPz6Rlx4Mza
